A rendition of Debra’s Oneida grandmother’s boarding school experience–told in first person through the eyes of a 7-year-old child removed from her homeland.
Artfully balancing first and third person, Debra takes you on a historical journey creatively woven through storytelling, native flute, and drum.
This performance is a powerful and eye-opening look at the atrocities inflicted upon native people during this part of our country’s past and leaves audiences asking themselves “Why didn’t I learn about this in school?”
